Winter Sucks!
Track Season is over and I just mounted 4 Nokian Snows on the 5 Series.
DAMN I swear Summer lasted 36 seconds this year! Winter Sucks!

I have been daily driving my X5 since last Winter when we had 30 inches of snow so nothing is changing for me in northern Maine. Does PA get real Winters? lol

What is this winter you keep talking about? It was in the high 80s here yesterday thanks to a cold front.

Sorry All, just had to rant. S65 loves this cool weather but my time off for track days is done!
Yes Endless619, we get winter here but nothing compared to Maine. I'll stop complaining. ....

 It's always fun spinning the summer tires all the way through second when it's cold though.  I'm still trying to hold off installing my winter set.... |

Easy! Grab the skis and ride out on the snow tires! I can't fathom how people live in 90+ degree heat for most of the year.

 I am leaving my Summer tires on. I take the M3 out when it snows sometimes. But not the heavy snow. They plow every 30 minutes or so when its really bad. X5 with extreme rain and snow tires does that duty!

Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. People seem to recommend continuous sub 40 degree for winter tires.
The tires do feel less grabby now that it's around 45 here. |
